This honey is produced in May in the very heart of Val di Non, Italy, where innumerable apple trees bloom. Called Melo in Italian, its color is light brown with gray and greenish reflections in the light. The first note is the aroma of apple cider followed by a hint of grass, sap, moss, and baked dessert apples. The taste is incredibly smooth, and follows the fragrance with a flavor of flowers and fruit, followed by the texture of thistle and artichoke stew.

Mieli Thun's small, family-run company is renowned for its many types of single variety Italian honeys, obtained through knowing and directed nomadic beekeeping. Their ambition is to help lead a renaissance in artisanal honey-making: the quintessence of the art of gathering honey.
